| Description: | The Osrel Meraud spell is a powerful enchantment that imbues a glass orb bearing the favor of the spell's namesake deity or one of his aspects with holy mana, transforming it into a magical reservoir. If skilled enough, the caster will be able to weave the pattern of other beneficial spells into the orb. These spells will affect the caster, but feed off of the orb as long as it has energy. | |
| Effect: | Creates an orb to store cleric buff spells. | |
| Example Messaging: | You gesture over the Meraud orb, muttering tones of enchantment!
Crackling waves of brilliant light swirl over the surface of the Meraud orb! It rapidly begins to expand and pulsate as the glassy surface shatters, exploding outward into a roiling ball of light that rises from your palm, into the air! Refill (Not Full): Refill (Full): Full: | |

Notes
- Stores spells and keeps them active until released. Active buffs tied with the orb will show via power perceive. Skill dictates how many spells can be held in the orb at one time. The more spells active in the orb, the faster it depletes its charge and must be infused with more mana to maintain the spells.
- Powered by mana held within orb, can be refilled by casting OM on the orb, or by infusing mana into the orb.
- Only the cleric spells listed below can be stored within the orb.
Per Ricinus:
Casting OM uses the standard Utility and Holy Magic skill blend to determine how much mana you can use per cast. This applies to the original cast as well refreshing casts. The size of the orb is determined based on your Holy Magic skill when the orb is created. Roundtime reduction for touching or breaking the orb is based on Arcana. Roundtime reduction for casting OM is based on Holy Magic. Infusions loss is reduced by Arcana. OM casts always use 100% of the mana you are able to use to cast.
Usage:
To cast the orb initially the cleric must have a Meraud favor orb in hand, the orb does not need to be filled. Simply Prepare the spell and cast it on the orb. Under the new magic system it requires roughly 220 holy magic to successfully cast. (Note: 1st successful cast of mine at 180 magic/utility, with SAP and aligned toward utility allowed me to cast it at 32 mana, instead of the 20 base required.)
To tie a spell into the orb prepare the desired spell and then TOUCH ORB
To release a spell tied to the orb simply RELEASE <SPELL>
To toggle the atmospheric messaging of the orb TAP ORB
To refill the orb, either harness and infuse OM or prep OM and cast orb. Infusions are less efficient than casting.
Spells cast into an orb that can be cast on items, such as Bless and water or Glythtide's Gift and drinks, can be cast on items without interfering with the orb-stored spell.
